Thanks, Jesse. This worked, and GRUB got installed to the MBR, and the machine
began a normal boot, but I ended up with a kernel panic. Looks like the
trouble started with device mapper:
Reading all physical volumes. This may take awhile...
hdc: packet command error: status=0x51 { Driveready SeekComplete Error }
hdc: packet command error: error=0x50 { LastFailedSense=0x05 }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
cdrom: open failed
No volume groups found
and so forth, till
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
and then a whole bunch of numbers and symbols
